The US was way behind on development and playing catch up in this and a lot of Military hard ware right up into WW2.

Hmm. I guess that's proved by the introduction of the M-1 Garand in the US Army in the mid to late 1930s (before WWII). A full power semi-auto battle rifle was really behind the curve, wasn't it?
